Windows "Microsoft has gone out on a limb to promote Vista not merely as 'the most secure version of Windows ever' (every recent version is marketed with that tired slogan), but for the first time as an adequately secure version of Windows. 'We've got the message and we've done our homework', the company says. So let's see if the reality lives up to the marketing hype."

What happens if you get the link in an email? (i.e. 99% of phishing scams). You don't get any such status bar.

I just checked and I do get that information in the status bar (KMail 1.9.5, KDE 3.5.5)

As well I get the link in Evolution, Thunderbird, and Outlook 2003.
